Banana Bread Dessert Recipes – Classic Version
Ingredients:
* 3 large ripe bananas, mashed
* 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
* 1 cup granulated sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
* Confectioners' sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In another mixing bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, followed by mashed bananas and vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in chopped walnuts, if using.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
6. Bake for 55-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Variations:
* Moist Chocolate Banana Bread: Add 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of cocoa powder to the dry ingredients.
* Cinnamon Swirl Banana Bread: Add 1 tsp of ground cinnamon to the dry ingredients. Before baking, sprinkle a cinnamon-sugar mixture (1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tsp ground cinnamon) over the batter.
* Nutella Banana Bread: Add 2 tbsp of Nutella to the wet ingredients and 1/4 cup of chopped hazelnuts to the dry ingredients.
* Glazed Banana Bread: While the banana bread is still warm, drizzle with a glaze made from 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tbsp milk, and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
Tips and Tricks:
* Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor.
* If you prefer a stronger banana flavor, use 4-5 bananas.
* To ensure even baking, rotate the loaf pan halfway through the cooking time.
* Let the banana bread cool completely before slicing and serving.
